My husband, Matt, and I love trying new breakfast places. For the longest time, I really did not enjoy eating breakfast. I was never an egg fan to be quite honest. But, being married to someone who loves breakfast and is an avid egg eater, I have grown to love them and have quite the appreciation for breakfast. I have heard Liberty Market has an awesome breakfast menu, but have never had a chance to try it. We woke up early, decided that today was the day, and made our way over to Liberty Market.

Located in the historical downtown Gilbert area, Liberty Market was originally built in 1935. There is some really great history behind Liberty Market that they made a short video about. If you’re interested, check it out here.
When you arrive at Liberty Market, you notice it is quite a unique space. Open ceilings, beautiful brick and industrial style decor really makes it a great spot! Liberty Market was founded by partners Chef David & Kiersten Traina and Gilbert restaurateur Joe & Cindy Johnston.

Liberty Market offers delicious house baked goods as well as weekly and weekend specials. They recently offered a Shrimp & Crispy Bacon Burger, Chorizo Pizza and Stumptown Affogato. They’re regular menu items are incredible, but there is something exciting about knowing that no matter what day of the week it is, Liberty Market offers unique specials that are brought from local farmers and suppliers. The chefs at Liberty Market enjoy their craft and you can tell that this is their passion. They continuously cook up creative, craft cuisine.
They offer amazing cinnamon rolls, house made bottled cocktails and delicious espresso drinks. I have never been a very big coffee drinker, but Matt loves coffee. We were told that their cortado was the best choice. Matt decided to give it a try and was blown out of the water. He loved it! For breakfast, we both decided to stick with some very basic, classics. Matt ordered the American Standard which came with three scrambled eggs, Liberty potatoes, biscuit, and your choice of bacon, Schreiner’s breakfast sausage, grilled flattened meatball or sausage gravy. He went with the sausage gravy. Of course, I made him let me try a little bit of his food. The sausage gravy was delicious! Not too thick, not too thin; just right! I ordered the Demi-Breakfast which came with two scrambled eggs, biscuit or pancake, and your choice of bacon, Schreiner’s breakfast sausage, grilled flattened meatball or sausage gravy. I decided to try their pancake and Schreiner’s breakfast sausage. It was delicious! The breakfast sausage was the perfect choice. It wasn’t too spicy, but had a delicious kick of flavor to it.
There are many delicious restaurants that offer amazing cuisine, unique atmosphere and a very welcoming vibe in Arizona, especially Gilbert. Joe Johnston is a recognized East Valley restaurateur & entrepreneur, with many other great restaurants that I am sure you will be reading about from me very soon. If you’re ever in Arizona and looking for a really great cup of coffee, warm breakfast and friendly smiles, Liberty Market is the place to go!
